Small Marley Twists Tutorial | Beginner Friendly Protective Style | Niara Alexis

[@journeyinpages]

Let me say I learn how to perfect my Marley twist watching you videos. I was about to put in chunky Marley twist until this video. I will be installing small twist. Thank you😊

[@NiaraAlexis]

Let me know how they turn out!

I screamed when she said “I started at 10am and ended at midnight… twist just don’t take that long” 😭😭 like she’s right but that’s still so bad 😩

[@olijoswt3951]

Mine take days when I do it that size. My hair is thick thick though.

So helpful. I have searched through so many videos of youtubers trying to explain this specific technique and no one is as clear as you are in this video. No one even comes close. Thank you thank you thank you thank you. #subscribed

[@NiaraAlexis]

You are so welcome!

Thank you so much for the mini Q&A! It was super helpful.❤ I just have a few more questions. I'm inspired on doing mini twists with extensions, but im debating on which twisting method I should use. It is between the braiding into a twist method, or the twisting method that you did. Which one do you suggest is easier/faster? And which one do you think will last longer? (This is my first time doing it ❤!) Thank you. I love all your videos!

[@NiaraAlexis]

They both last the same amount of time and take about the same time to do. Just depends on the look you want. I personally prefer either a twist or a braid but not a combination of the teo

[@StunningSynclair]

You would look great with spring twist! The short style is playful, but not childish. They’re one of my go to’s and take half the time bc of the length lol

[@accountuser9382]

I cannot wait to do mine!!!! Loved this tutorial!

[@shakiki25]

Thank you! I can't wait to try this style

[@NiaraAlexis]

Let me know how it turns out!

[@jacquelineloving7572]

While twisting, you actually twist one side like a rope correct? I’m new to twisting, so that’s why I’m asking. I usually have very loose twist, and it’s not flattering. If you don’t mind clarifying a little further, I’m greatly appreciate it. Thanks

[@kashmereratcliff4207]

I definitely needed to know how to handle this hair. It was tangling up on my before lol. Now I know to cut the ends and comb lol. Thank you

[@NiaraAlexis]

Glad I could help!

[@eanu123]

Thanks for this video. My natural hair needs to be put away and this video will get me the look I want. 😊

[@NiaraAlexis]

You’re welcome 😊

[@Lee-lc1fs]

Love your videos, I'm a new subscriber. Can I ask what you mean by dipping the hair. I really want twists but this is my first time. Everything on this video and the hot press comb 101 tutorial was clear and easy to follow, you're awesome!

[@NiaraAlexis]

Hi! So glad to be helpful 🤗 so when I finish off my twists I dip them in really hot water (I boil it on the stove) it’s called a hot water set which basically seals the twist so it won’t unravel

[@judikinins5]

New to your channel loving your videos... i really want to try these twists. How many times did u divide each strand that comes in the packet to get this size . Thank you ❤

[@NiaraAlexis]

Only once I divided them I think

[@07Channia07]

Love!! 😍 So would you say the only difference to how you used to do these (compared to your older twist video) is the hair you use? I was watching your older video as I waited for your updated tutorial and just want to make sure I haven't missed any huge changes 😊

[@NiaraAlexis]

I think I used the same hair too! Just a newer video

[@MrsWhite-ur1qz]

I love that hair! It's better than the Janet collection for Marley twists. 🎉

[@___Victoria_sunny]

I have one question hope you can answer it in a future video if you don't forget: why is that you need to blow dry your hair before putting it in a protective style? You cant do it in its natural state ? What are the benefits ? Thanks

[@NiaraAlexis]

Just creates a more uniform and smoother look. Depends on what your final look to be

[@santaolivera2276]

Thank you for the tutorial Niara!! The twists look beautiful and it seems beginner friendly. Just what I was looking for. I wanted to ask you: how long do you keep the style and if you use the same method to wask your hair as the one you showed for the braids.

[@NiaraAlexis]

I wear for 4-5 weeks. I used to not wash my hair at all with twists. Using the edge brush with this type of hair makes them look very messy imo. I just started using my fingers instead for this style & I works better for this type of hair

[@santaolivera2276]

@@NiaraAlexis Thank you! 😊

[@tabithaamanze2219]

Love this! how many hair pack did you use?

[@NiaraAlexis]

3-5 it depends on length

[@0tismadaline]

Well shared sweetheart, will give it a try 😊

[@NiaraAlexis]

Let me know how it goes!

[@crystallight328]

Good morning How long do you leave your twist in your relaxed hair? I’m thinking of leaving mines in for 2/3 weeks and reuse the hair later.

[@NiaraAlexis]

Usually 4 weeks but I don’t reuse the hair. After it’s been dipped and sealed I feel like it would be hard to redo it. Plus the hair would have accumulated dirt/buildup at the roots

[@lynbrown942]

Hello dear...bn waiting...lol...thank u so much fr aharing...I learn so much...ty ty ty...be bkessed and healthy dear...

[@mrsp5808]

[@NiaraAlexis]

I dip the ends in hot water to seal them

[@aquariusbaby7055]
